Guided trip
Shaka to everyone 🤙🏼! Do you enjoy road trips 🚗, hiking 🏞️ and history 🏛️ travel? This is the right trip for you! We will visit the acropolis 🏛️, castles 🏰, old roads, and wonderful natural places 🌱. The island of Rhodes has a lot to offer from a historical and natural point of view. Did you know that in the last century, it was an Italian colony? Over the years there have been different influences by many populations and we will discover the intriguing history of the island together. If the weather permits, we will also take the opportunity to swim in the sea 🌊. We will drive through roads with magnificent views and we will stop to take beautiful hiking routes, reach castles on the hills, or be immersed in nature. We will stay in a comfortable apartment 🏨, located in the city of Archangelos, near beautiful beaches 🏖️. What's included in the price: - Accommodation 🏡. - Car renting 🚗. What's not included: - Food/meals and drinks (we can choose together time by time for responding to all necessities). - Car gas (we will share the expenses, should be no more than 60€ in total). - Attraction tickets. - Travel Insurance (free for Austrian and German residents by JoinMyTrip and Allianz) . - Other expenses not listed. At this point, you will be asking who is this beautiful guy that is offering to guide you? Well, my name is Francesco, but if my name is too long for you, we will work on creating the best nickname. I'm Italian 🇮🇹, as you can guess from my marvelous mustache, and I'm trying to find my way after my master's degree in Sport Management. I live in Naples, but in the last few years, I've been more abroad than in my house. I love to travel in any way possible, I love to stay with people, and I'm usually the clown of the group. I'm the type of person that after 5 minutes of our meeting is already planning to start a project together or organize a journey. If you have any questions, I will be happy to talk with you. Hope to travel soon together!!

Seven Springs

Day 2
Seven Springs (Epta Piges) offers a cool, magical landscape, a real oasis. Water flows out of the springs all year around, which is forming a small lake. The lake remains replenished thanks to a dam built by the Italians. If we are adventurous enough, we can to walk through the 186 meters long and 2.5 meters high and very narrow dark tunnel to get to the lake, that is also is also suitable for swimming.

Butterflies Valley

Day 3
This green valley is nice for an easy nature walk and has a small Natural History Museum worth checking out. The 1 km route that composes the Butterfly Valley is beautifully organized with wooden bridges over pools and falls of water, paved footpaths, and little benches to enjoy the scenery.
6

Kritinia Castle

Day 3
Erected in 1472 according to the project of the Venetian sculptor and architect Giorgio da Sebenico – also known as Giorgio Orsini – the Castle of Kritinia, or Kastellos as the locals call it, is a spectacular fortress built to protect the village from attacks by the Ottomans. Kritinia Castle is 131 meters above sea level. It is not difficult to reach it and the effort will be well rewarded by the incredible panorama of Kritinia, the sea, the island of Calchi and some islets near Rhodes.
7

Castle of Monolithos

Day 3
The castle of Monolithos was built on the foundations of another, older castle, and lies about 236m high on an amazingly difficult natural terrain, which made its construction even more challenging, near the village of Monolithos. Today only some external parts of the fortifications remain, but they are in a quite well reserved condition. But what also makes it worth embarking on an arduous attempt to climb the steep hill, are the magnificent churches, the two 15th century chapels of St. Panteleimon and St. George and the breathtaking view of the mountain of Akramytis, the village of Monolithos right below it, the island Halki and of course the vast Aegean Sea. The scenery while driving to the castle is one of the most beautiful on the island, it it is well worth making some stops to admire the landscape and the views towards the smaller islands and islands close to Rhodes.
